He did this because the Mormons have a long track record of baptizing the dead without their consent (i.e., without anything in their will or dying wishes), and even without the consent of their immediate families. For example, the Mormons secretly baptized President Obama's late mother right before the 2008 election, and the President and his family had no idea (John got the scoop on that story). There's a very real chance that you, or a loved one, could become Mormon after you cease to exist.
